I don’t think we’ll have a shortage of pepper anytime soon.

Is there an item that, when you are at the grocery store, you will buy, even if it’s not on your list because you think you might be low and you certainly wouldn’t want to run out because to run out of said item would be a crisis?
Apparently, that item, for me, is pepper. We like pepper, yes we do, but it’s not like we couldn’t live without pepper for the few minutes that it would take to drive to the store, or heaven forbid, the few interminably long hours, if we couldn’t go immediately and had to wait until the next day.
Looks like we won’t have to either for the next, oh, ten years. 
I mean, we even have bulk peppercorns. I think we might wear our pepper grinder out before we even finish the jar.
Note to self: go mark pepper off the grocery list.
So, what do you have multiple items of in your pantry?
cans of tomatoes and tomato paste for making sauce - I have soo much because I hate to run out and I’m always afraid I’m running low.
